I Am For An Art

I am for an art that takes more than one glance to see what is truly there.

I am for an art that shows the complexity of nature capturing what is often viewed as mundane.

I am for an art that holds emotion of its own instead of hanging lifeless for all to pass by.

I am for an art that connects history and now so that we may never forget the times that shape the current moments.

I am for an art that has a dry, sarcastic sense of humor within.

I am for an art that uses the browns and greens, the blues and reds, the yellows and oranges of the world but adds to that the vast blackness of night.

I am for an art that holds the motion and noise of life and the quiet stillness of death.

I am for an art that collages aspects of itself to capture the attention of a viewer for more than a tick of the clock.

I am for an art that is like a game of Telephone in that the message is a little different to everyone.

I am for an art that looks a person in the face and whispers, “I’m here, and I know you want to look.”

 

Gwenyn's Winning Entry: Through the Mist

Through the Mist

Description

This picture was taken on a hike through Silver Creek Falls in Oregon. Nothing was photo-shopped or altered in this image. It just captures a quiet, peaceful moment in time.

I loved all of your images, but this one seemed to most closely fulfill your "I Am For An Art" mission statement. The texture, the framing and the energy all came together, wrestling me to the ground, and forcibly dragging my mind and eyes deep into the photo and "Through the Mist." Thank you for the breath-taking journey . . .
